They're sanitizable, last quite well (longer than most files i've tried and i've tried lots in my search for the perfect file!), are lovely to use and the 240 grit. Whereas a 240 will remove the top layers, but won't remove cuticle that easily. I would never use this file to buff the top of my shellac though. Crystal nail files have a very low grit to them.so when you file they pretty much seal the free edge.

Also after removal, is everyone buffing nail and if so with what grit buffer? I never need to with. We now use the system for nail files and foot rasps where you get a base and put grit stickers on. Training that i had said to use a 180 grit file and another board i go too also say to use 180 grit for preparing the nail for gels, so many different thoughts on these.

Most techs incorrectly using an e file on the natural nails are using the incorrect grit, incorrect speed, and using too much pressure, taking off too much nail and causing pain.

Say for example you used a 100 grit file it would tear/rip at the free edge. I would recommend the hot shot cnd file 100/180 grit.
